" science does not direct people to cause harm to others as some religions do."

actually it does in many ways, eugenics being the first example i can think of, since it(science) points out differences between people, that people naturally feel the need to act on

Eugenics isn't a science, it's a social philosophy based on scientific data.  The science itself never said anything about what to do with the data.

" The science itself never said anything about what to do with the data."

ok and who did? the scientists who did the evaluations right? so what's your point? mine is simply that eugenics came about as a consequence of science, do you disagree?

can we agree that science has to have a practitioner? and that you cannot separate science from its practitioners?
